Along The Pontchartrain lyrics

Alright

I'm sittin' here in Vegas

I got a 29 dollar room

And the lobby is outrageous

All lit up like high noon

The players keep on playin'

The wheels go round and round

And baby I can hear you sayin'

What the hell you doin' in that town



And the letter that you wrote me

Torn to pieces baby right there in the rain

Yeah, yeah

I threw the pieces in the water

Down along Lake Pontchartrain



I came out here a young boy

Just about a week or two ago

Yeah, right after I found out

Things I didn't really wanna know

I heard all about yours travels

The who's, the where's, the when's

And a piece of me unravelled

Never gonna see you again



And the letter that you wrote me

Torn to pieces baby right there in the rain

Yeah, yeah

I threw the pieces in the water

Down along the Pontchartrain



And the band keeps on playin'

The waiters bring the drinks

And the high rollers, rollin' em' all night long

I made it here I'm stayin' on, longer than you think

Cause you sold me down the river for a song

I'm never goin' back that way again, no

Along the Pontchartrain

Yeah yeah



Along the Pontchartrain - Along the Pontchartrain



And the Letter that you wrote me

Torn to pieces baby right there out in the rain

Yeah yeah

I threw the pieces in the water

Down along Lake Ponchartrain



I threw it all into the water

Yeah down along the Ponchartrain

I threw it all into the water yeah

Down along, down along the Ponchartrain

Yeah, yeah

Along the Ponchartrain
